PostNow Development

Post by Smartweb »

Hi. I am the head developer of Techmine's PostNow. Feel free to ask me any questions you want about programming. We are creating PostNow in both VB6 and VC++6. See http://techmine.zapto.org for PostNow details.

Will Postnow be in a 64-Bit version also to maximize AMD64 and I64 (P4 and Itanium editions) experiences?

At this time PostNow has only been compiled to x86 32-bit programs. Because of the amount of developers that hate .NET (me included), there should be a VB6 extention by 2005 (PostNow's scheduled release year) to compile a VB6 project to AMD64 and IA-64. If I can't find any extentions by then, depending on the need for 64-bit programs, I will either not release a 64-bit version or create a team to work on porting the project to .NET and then compile it to 64-bit.

This version is not meant to be used for productivity yet. If by some miracle it does work please tell me. :D

There will be no processor discussions in the Programming forum. All posts about processors will be deleted, and members who excessively spam the Programming section will be baned. Thank you for your cooperation.

The latest bulid is 0.1.61. In about may we'll have 0.2 probably which will be a testable alpha build. Later in the summer I will probably release Beta 1 which will be 0.3. About a year from then expect 1.0.
